Crazy Lixx - Wild Child

The Swedish glam metal band CRAZY LIXX will be celebrating their fifteenth anniversary as a band with the release of their fifth studio album, “Ruff Justice”! Set to be release on April 21.

“Ruff Justice”, the 10-track sleaze metal gem that harkens back to the best of ‘80s hard rock, draws inspiration from not only music, but 1980’s horror and action flicks and is a glowing reminder that pretty much everything was better in the 80’s. With its big choruses, memorable hooks and riffs, impressive guitar solos and a massive production by Danny Rexon and Chris Laney, this album is sure to resonate with old fans and new listeners alike.

“We’ve tried the same ‘all killers-no fillers’ approach that we’ve gone for on our previous albums, but this time, more than ever, I think we’ve come close to that vision,“ says lead singer and producer Danny Rexon.

“Ruff Justice” will be the first CRAZY LIXX album to feature the new lineup of Chrisse Olsson and Jens Lundgren handling the axes.

“It does bring a certain feel to the album that I think we’ve been missing since the days of ‘New Religion’ (2010). Once again the whole band pulls in the same direction and the end result, I believe, will be very well received among those who hold ‘New Religion’ in high regards. If I would compare Ruff Justice to any of our previous albums, that would have to be the one,” Danny Rexon concludes.

The album also includes two songs which have appeared on the “Friday The 13th” videogame soundtrack: “XIII” and “Live Before I Die”. Friday the 13th: The Game is an upcoming survival horror video game developed by Gun Media and IllFonic, and published by Gun Media. It is scheduled for release in early 2017 for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

Today's tune "Wild Child" is taken form the upcoming album “Ruff Justice”

Black Label Society - Fire It Up

Category five of eight: 

 (Orderly heavy, max 110bpm) 

is up for this dark Friday the 13th, taken from the annual hard rock evening. 

My choice was the American rockers in DOPETHRONE and the heavy piece "Shot Down" that I chose mostly because of all the violence that we have in the world right now.

Other tunes that was played. 

MORGANA LEFAY - Rooms of Sleep

DOPETHRONE - Shot Down

DOWN - Stone the Crow

BLACK STONE CHERRY - The Way of the Future

JEFF BECK - Right Now

AMON AMARTH - One Thousand Burning Arrows

BLACK LABEL SOCIETY - Fire It Up

TEMPLE OF VOID - Rot In Solitude

(Missing songs from two participants).

Today's tune "Fire It Up" by heavy metal band BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, an excellent choice of "Jens", heavy piece indeed. The tune is taken from the sixth studio album "Mafia", released March 8, 2005. The track "In This River" was written before the death of Zakk Wylde's friend and fellow guitarist Dimebag Darrell, but it has since been dedicated to him.

The track was featured in the 2005 game Guitar Hero. The end of "Death March" quotes the intro to "Fire It Up".

Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats - 13 Candles

Friday the 13th is considered an unlucky day in Western superstition. The fear of Friday the 13th has been called friggatriskaidekaphobia (Frigga being the name of the Norse goddess for whom "Friday" is named in English and triskaidekaphobia meaning fear of the number thirteen), or paraskevidekatriaphobia a concatenation of the Greek words Paraskeví (Παρασκευή, meaning "Friday"), and dekatreís (δεκατρείς, meaning "thirteen") attached to phobía (φοβία, from phóbos, φόβος, meaning "fear"). The latter word was derived in 1911 and first appeared in a mainstream source in 1953.

Enough of this, we light a candle and listen to some music that fits in. Todays tune "13 Candles" combines catchy chorus, great guitar riffs and great Hammond organ melodies, it sticks to your head like glue and it reflects everything that this band is delivering. The tune is taken from the Cambridge-based psychedelic doom band "Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats" breakthrough album "Blood Lust"

The record is conceptual and tells the story of a drug addict and sadistic killer who is performing satanic rituals sacrificing women.

I was on the staircase by the bell
Blinded by the black magician's spell
Sorceress of death lay by my side
Rising of the blood came with the tide

13 candles, black and red set alight
13 candles black and red burning bright
I always burn black candles in the night
I began my ritual of sin
Exorcising demons from within
Casting spells of yearning and desire
We breathe in black smoke from Satan's fire

I raise up my dagger to the light
Knowingly the sorceress won't fight
I creep in from shadows cast away
And she bathes in goat's blood I hear her say

13 candles, black and red set alight
13 candles black and red burning bright
I always burn black candles in the night
